We provide versatile sleeve for S-Flex coupling in three models: one-piece sound, one-piece split, and two-piece with retaining ring
The one-piece split style offers answers for applications with distinctive needs the place smaller shaft separations inhibit the installation of a one-piece solid sleeve
Pre-molded teeth along the diameter of your sleeve engage with teeth in the coupling flanges
No clamps or screws are desired to connect the flanges together with the flexible sleeve which securely lock together below torque for smooth transmission of power
Torque is transmitted via shear loading with the sleeve
All three sleeve components are extremely elastic which permits the S-Flex coupling to safeguard linked equipment from damaging shock loading, vibration, and shaft misalignment
JE, JN, JES, JNS Sleeve Styles
These sleeves attribute a one-piece layout molded in EPDM & Neoprene rubber. In the case of JES & JNS Styles, the one-piece style is split to provide for ease of set up and removal.
E, N Sleeve Styles
These sleeves characteristic a two-piece style and design with retaining ring. The E Type is molded in EPDM rubber and the N Type is molded in Neoprene. The two-piece style is ideal for applications exactly where there is difficulty in separating the shafts of your driver and driven.
H, HS Sleeve Styles
These sleeves function both a one-piece reliable (H) and two-piece split
(HS) style and design and are molded of Hytrel. The sleeves in Hytrel material are designed to transmit power for high torque applications. Because of your design and style and the properties with the Hytrel molded sleeve, the H and HS sleeves should not be used as direct replacements for EPDM or Neoprene sleeves, and can only be used with S, TF, or SC flanges.
Sleeve Elements
EPDM ?§C Unless otherwise specified, S-Flex couplings are supplied with EPDM versatile sleeves. EPDM has good resistance to commonly used chemicals and is generally not affected by dirt or moisture. Color is black.
NEOPRENE ?§C Neoprene delivers very good performance characteristics for most applications and offers a very good resistance to chemical and oil conditions. Color is black with a green dot.
HYTREL ?§C Hytrel is a polyester elastomer designed for high torque and high temperature applications and offers excellent resistance to chemical and oil conditions. Color is orange.
